A dry day with varying level of cloud but always below the summit. Kept to the Warrens area mostly as a bit lower and out the cloud for some of the time. It was -2 in the car park AM and temp rose but freezing always below the summit. Wind was light.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Good cover to most runs with full width on Goose and warrens which had great surface and 7 bashers wide and well prepared so could be skied with good confidence when the cloud came in. Sidewinder was Ok too. The goose was pretty much freeride with the Alt Sneachda being the choice route, it could be skied right down to the bottom of the chair and was fun with only one narrow bit, good for boarders riding the chair as the run below the chair was broken at the very bottom so actually a better alternative. Poor vis and avalanche risk put paid to any thoughts of the back or the Nid but they are traditionally later season runs anyway and its still Jan so they will be there later on hopefully?

Started out as a almost bluebird day, cold at top.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Snow across most of the runs pretty good, top best with Rannoch Glades, Spring Run and Happy Valley best. Although Flypaper closed, experienced skiers should find it no bother. Mugs Alley and Plateau cover good with well pisted snow to bottom of Poma lift.
